Our mare "Mahala" had a trouble with her foal. The feet were turned downed and caught on her pelvis. We had the vet out and he was able to get the foal out, but it was too late. The colt was absolutely gorgeous. He was the brightest golden color that I have ever seen on a new foal. He had a light chocolate stripe down his back, with socks, and large blaze. His sire was B&W Gold Dun Boy, a dun son of Johnston's Goldboy. Why is it always the most beautiful or the most anticipateed foals that seem to be the ones we loose or have problems with? :no:

If there is any good news in this, the vet said the mare was fine. I think we will breed her back the same way and see if we can get one just like that one on the ground next year.
 
That is heartbreaking. I'm SO sorry!

I'm glad your mare is ok. Give her lots of hugs
 
I am so very sorry for your loss and you are right it's never easy losing one. I am glad though that you are going to try the cross again.

Hugs to you.
 
So sorry for your loss.. it's so hard to loose the babies.
 
My heart goes out to you. I'm glad your mare is okay though. Praying for a better outcome next time.
 
I AM SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. HOPE THINGS WORK OUT FOR NEXT YEAR.

You are sure having more than your share, but it has to get better!

Don't ever give up.

I don't think anything can be said to make you feel better, but I'm sending prayers your way.
 
So sorry for your loss.... :no:

That is a heartbreaker for sure. Breeeding and foaling minis is a hard business and plenty of sadness too.

Hope the breed back will produce just what you want and I'm really glad your mare is ok.
